Best Athens Restaurants

Greek coffee, meze, souvlaki, stifado, baklava – all these need to be sampled on any visit to Athens. Restaurants and cafés across the city sell all these and more, and the sheer range of options means that choosing the right place is critical.

So let’s cut to the chase – this being the English translation of, which offers the best balance of value and flavour of just about any souvlaki joint in Athens. The only drawback is that the setup is a bit on the takeaway side. If you’re looking for somewhere to sit down for a leisurely meal check out Santorinio’s (no website), which is much more akin to a traditional Greek taverna, serving up all the classics and coffee to perfection in cosy surrounds.

If you’re in the market for something a bit edgier, you’ll no doubt be spending a lot of time in the Exarthia district. While you’re there, drop into for a bite to eat: it wonderfully mixes the electric energy of the area with homely Greek cuisine, and could easily be your first and last stop of the night. If this all sounds a little too homely and you fancy going up-market (while also trying the Greeks’ famed take on seafood), then a visit to is essential. This Michelin-starred restaurant is widely recognised as Athens’s best spot for fish at the high end of the scale.
